It seems that the Musso is relatively a good vehicle to own. I am thinking of owning one myself, but can someone please! inform the spares suppliers (manufacturers) to ensure availability of spare parts when needed!!

I have owned a 2002 Musso turbo diesel (auto) for the last month. The car is 12 months old and covered 20,000 miles now. All the comments regarding comfort, toys & gadgets in the reviews are correct. I am averaging 28mpg around town.

Looking forward to fitting a towbar and taking our touring caravan out in the early spring!

I have some peice of mind due to 2 years transferred warranty left to go!!

1995 SsangYong Musso GL 2.9 diesel from UK and Ireland

Summary:

Slow but reliable

Faults:

Paint stripping on the bumpers - replaced by main dealer.

Seat belt fails.

ABS failed.

General Comments:

A large 4WD with depreciation to match!

Slow off the blocks and unhappy at motorway speeds, handles like a elephant, limited off road ability, however - this is a very reliable car - thanks to the Merc engine and running gear. If you accept its limitations, you will find it more than satisfactory.
